I WANNA BE......

So, I happened to catch a few of these shows today as I was being a slightly hungover lazy bastard. It occurred to me that most of the shows that feature young girls being "Made" all have to do with them wanting to be "Made"over because of a boy. Sigh...*begin rant* WHY is MTV perpetuating these shenanigans?! Girls, if you want to do something to better yourself, it should be because of you! Not for some lamer who hasn't given you the time of day and now you think that if you get made into a slightly prettier and maybe ballsier version of yourself, he'll all of the sudden come to his senses.. Puhleeeze! If that bamma wasn't paying your plain/fat/goofy/nerdy/etc. ass any attention before then he damn sure doesn't deserve YOUR attention after you're all spiffed up! The real you hasn't changed, just the outside.

Of course, some will argue that this show helps to improve self esteem and boost confidence. Yea yea whatevs. It improves self esteem and confidence for our future teen mothers of America. In the end the dorky/fat (see all other adjectives above) chick goes to the school dance with the hottest closeted gay in the school. He's the only one that would agree to go with her because he has something to prove also. Then she thinks she's so hot she starts putting out because boys start paying attention to her because they can see still....deep down....that the fatty/nerd still has esteem issues. This will most certainly lead to some fucked up situations.

Anywhore, I say all of this to say that I declare shenanigans on this crappy show! Life should not be worthy of change because of a boy. Life is worthy of change because its something that an individual feels should happen. Change can be great....but not for the wrong reasons. This show perpetuates the notion that boys are worth the trouble. Trust me tweeners, teens and old head brawds.....Boys are so NOT worth the trouble.

I'M TELLIN YALL SOME GOOD SHIT
